Force Sensor Handles Quasi-Static Processes

Tailored to industrial applications, the Model 219A05 charge-output, quartz force sensor is suitable for obtaining an indirect measurement of injection molding cavity pressure by positioning the sensor behind an ejector pin. The sensor is very stiff, which allows it to follow very fast transient events and to measure short-term, quasi-static processes. A removable cable allows for a choice of lengths and terminating connector types. The component measures 6 mm in diameter and 6 mm in height and specifies a full-scale measurement range up to 560 lbs. (2.5 kN). For pricing, call PCB PIEZOTRONICS INC., Depew, NY. (800) 828-8840.
